FP-AI-100 all channels show over range

I am modifying an installation that has been functioning for over 6 years but we have never used the analog module.  Using the measurement and automation explorer, all channels are configured for 0 to 18 volts and all channels show 18 volts and status is out of range.  I have not wired anything to the module yet so I am lost as to how the module thinks is has 18 volts on each point.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

Dan:

 

Probably normal behaviour due to the high input impedance of the front end building up a charge. Connect Vin to COM on any given channel and it should drop to 0 volts.
